Abstract: An automotive power control system which delivers a regulated voltage to a load circuit during normal operation and which delivers maximum power when the demand exceeds the alternator's ability to supply adequate current to the load. A duty-cycle- controlled DC-to-DC voltage converter (35) reduces the alternator voltage to a level appropriate for charging the system battery and supplying low voltage loads. When the rotational speed of the alternator (30) is adequate to generate sufficient load current, the voltage converter (35) operates under the control of a first feedback circuit which compares the converter's output load voltage with a reference potential to generate an error signal which regulates the output voltage to a desired level. When the output voltage falls below that desired level, a speed signal indicative of the speed at which the alternator (30) is rotating is used to generate a control signal which is applied to the switching converter (35)0to vary the alternator output voltage and maximize the power obtained from the alternator at the sensed rotational speed.

Abstract: Original source verifying data defining a first source verifying image are stored in memory (62). The first source verifying image can be produced by a human making marks by hand in a field of a form, which can then be provided by a scanner (74) or a facsimile transmission (72) through image input circuitry (70). If a second source verifying image is received that is the same as the first source verifying image, an operation is performed that would not be performed if the images were not the same, such as an operation accessing a related item of data. For example, the first source verifying image can be received with a document image, and data defining the document image and the original source verifying data can be stored so that a source verifying image that is the same as the first source verifying image must be received before an operation can access the document data and provide it to image output circuitry for printing or facsimile transmission. As a result, the marked form is analogous to a key: Only someone who possesses the marked form or a high quality copy can obtain access to the document data. If the marked form is lost or destroyed, the document data cannot be accessed.

Abstract: Apparatus (300) and method for measuring the change in a dimension of a structure operate by measuring the distance between the plurality of reflective markers (11-15) located along an optical fiber (22). The optical fiber (22) is attached to the structure in such a manner that a change in the dimension in question results in a change in the optical delay of the fiber (22) between at least two of the markers (11-15). The fiber (22) is illuminated with low coherence light. Each marker (11-15) reflects a portion of a light signal traversing the fiber from a first end thereof. The markers (11-15) are located at predetermined distance from the first end. Light reflected from the markers (11-15) is collected and introduced into an autocorrelator (30,310) that measures the coherent sum of a first signal comprising the collected light and a second signal comprising the collected light delayed by a variable time delay. The coherent sum is measured as a function of said variable time delay. Various embodiments of the present invention utilize different methods for identifying the specific markers (11-15). For example, the markers (11-15) may be constructed such that each pair of markers (11-15) reflects light of a characteristic wavelength. In a second embodiment, the distance between each pair of markers (11-15) is used to identify the pair of markers (11-15). In a third embodiment. the reflectivity of each marker (11-15) is used to identify the markers (11-15).

Abstract: A Fourier transform arithmetic unit is reduced in cost and size by simplifying the configuration of a butterfly operation device. Data corresponding to each of unit symbols is divided into first-half data and second-half data by a distribution switch. The first-half data is supplied to a delay circuit to be delayed by N/2. The data delayed by this delay circuit is again supplied to this delay circuit. The second-half data is supplied to another delay circuit to be delayed by N/2. The delayed data is again supplied to this delay circuit to be delayed. In this manner, the first-half data and the second-half data are supplied two times to input terminals of the butterfly operation device. The butterfly operation device performs one of two butterfly operations (addition) at the time of the first input and performs the other butterfly operation (subtraction) at the time of the second input. That is, the butterfly operation device performs the butterfly operations in a time division manner.
